SEV Biblia, Chapter 7:16
Y los que vinieron, macho y hembra de toda carne vinieron, como le había mandado Dios: y cerró Dios sobre él.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Genesis 7:16
Verse 16. The Lord shut him in.] This seems to imply that God took him under his especial protection, and as he shut HIM in, so he shut the OTHERS out. God had waited one hundred and twenty years upon that generation; they did not repent; they filled up the measure of their iniquities, and then wrath came upon them to the uttermost.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 13-16 - The ravenous creatures were made mild and manageable; yet, when thi occasion was over, they were of the same kind as before; for the ar did not alter their natures. Hypocrites in the church, who outwardl conform to the laws of that ark, are yet unchanged; and it will appear one time or other, what kind they are after. God continued his care of Noah. God shut the door, to secure him and keep him safe in the ark also to keep all others for ever out. In what manner this was done, God has not been pleased to make known. There is much of our gospel duty and privilege to be seen in Noah's safety in the ark. The apostle make it a type of christian baptism, 1Pe 3:20, 21. Observe then, it is ou great duty, in obedience to the gospel call, by a lively faith in Christ, to come into that way of salvation which God has provided for poor sinners. Those that come into the ark, should bring as many a they can with them, by good instructions, by persuasions, and by goo examples. There is room enough in Christ for all comers. God put Ada into paradise, but did not shut him in, so he threw himself out; but when God put Noah into the ark, and so when he brings a soul to Christ the salvation is sure: it is not in our own keeping, but in the Mediator's hand. But the door of mercy will shortly be shut agains those that now make light of it. Knock now, and it shall be opened, L 13:25.
